[Gambas-user] Example for download and print in gb.web/gb.web.form

[Safiur Rahman]

Hi

Passing path of created file does not work:
''Generating PDF
sPath = Temp() & ".pdf
Shell "wkhtmltopdf " & sHtml & " " & sPath Wait

 ''Printing PDF (generated above)
  Me.Exec("printJS('" & sPath & "')")

How can I get web root and how can I send file there? I have to run
application with apache2 from /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ folder.
